Exhibit A
GRANT COLLABORATION REQUEST
City of Carmel
Hamilton County Tourism, Inc.
Overview
The City of Carmel is embarking on creation of a climate resiliency plan and has been, for
years, exploring ways to support an environmentally more sustainable community through
its work with roundabouts, improving routes for cyclists, encouraging density over sprawl,
and through other innovative and internationally recognized means.
Hamilton County Tourism has supported development of the White River Vision Plan
WRVP) and has served as its manager as it has sought a “home” in which to reside. The
Central Indiana Regional Development Authority (CIRDA) has authorized implementation of
a White River Technical Committee that will support the WRVP in Marion, Hamilton and
Madison Counties (grant funding dependent to add to the plan).
The technical committee will include a representative from the City of Carmel as well as
Hamilton County Tourism, Inc. and will seek ways to encourage sustainable opportunities
for access and positive environmental impacts on the river.
In addition, Hamilton County Tourism is beginning implementation of a regenerative
tourism, or destination stewardship program, to give back to the communities that help
produce such a vibrant tourism economy. This includes supporting cultural, environmental,
and quality of place (people, planet, place) initiatives such as this.
Project Scope
Hamilton County Tourism, Inc. requests a two-year collaboration grant with the City of
Carmel to employ a Sustainability Senior Manager through 2024. This grant will be matched
by a grant from the Nina Mason Pulliam Charitable Trust’s White River partnership grant
program and Hamilton County Tourism. The request is for $25,000 in 2023 and $50,000 in
2024.
As part of the work with the White River Vision Plan, a portion of this full-time individual’s
work would be focused on Carmel’s portion of the White River as it works with Conner
Prairie, the Carmel Clay Parks Department, and the Hamilton County Parks Department on
implantation of the South River District plans. In addition, as part of the scope of grant

Carmel and with much optimism that this unique partnership will create meaningful and
